  • a vehicle driving device comprises an internal combustion engine 1 and a transmission unit 2 that performs gear shifting for the rotation output power from the internal combustion engine 1 and outputs it to a propeller shaft 3 .
  • the internal combustion engine 1 comprises an intake throttle 1 A and a fuel injector 1 B.
  • the transmission unit 2 comprises a torque converter 2 B, an automatic transmission 2 A that performs gear shifting for the rotation power output from the torque converter 2 B, and a hydraulic lockup clutch 2 C.
  • the torque converter 2 B has a structure known in the art, including a pump impeller linked to a rotation shaft of the internal combustion engine 1 and a turbine runner coupled to an input shaft of the automatic transmission 2 A, in which a torque is transferred using a hydraulic fluid interposed between the pump impeller and the turbine runner.
  • the automatic transmission 2 A is a planetary gear set known in the art, including a high clutch and a low brake.
  • the lockup clutch 2 C when engaged, directly connects the pump impeller and the turbine runner. When disengaged, the lockup clutch 2 C frees up engagement between the pump impeller and the turbine runner.
  • the engaging and disengaging operations in the lockup clutch 2 C and each of the high clutch and the low brake of the automatic transmission 2 A are performed by the automatic transmission controller (ATCU) 5 using a pump pressure of a hydraulic pump provided as an accessory of the internal combustion engine 1 .
  • the engine controller (ECU) 4 controls an opening rate of the intake throttle 1 A for adjusting an intake air amount of the internal combustion engine 1 and fuel injection of the fuel injector 1 B of the internal combustion engine 1 .
  • Each of the ECU 4 and the ATCU 5 is constituted by a microcomputer comprising a central processing unit (CPU), a read-only memory (ROM), a random access memory (RAM), and an input/output interface (I/O interface).
  • CPU central processing unit
  • ROM read-only memory
  • RAM random access memory
  • I/O interface input/output interface
  • One of the ECU 4 and the ATCU 5 or both of them may be constituted by a plurality of microcomputers.
  • the ECU 4 and the ATCU 5 may be constituted by a single microcomputer.
  • the ECU 4 receives, via a signal circuit, each detection data from an accelerator pedal depression sensor 6 that detects a depression amount the accelerator pedal or an accelerator opening of a vehicle, a vehicle speed sensor 7 that detects a vehicle travel speed, arid an engine rotation speed sensor 8 that detects a rotation speed of the internal combustion engine 1 .
  • the ATCU 5 receives detection data from a shift position sensor 9 that detects a selected position of a selector of a vehicle via a signal circuit.
  • a fuel recovery control routine executed by the ECU 4 as the accelerator pedal is depressed during a coast running will be described.
  • the ECU 4 repeatedly executes this routine while a vehicle travels, That is, after a routine is terminated, the subsequent routine starts immediately.
  • a step S 1 the ECU 4 determines whether or not the accelerator opening has increased from zero based on the input data from the accelerator pedal depression sensor 6 . Specifically, the determination is affirmative if the accelerator opening on the occasion of the previous routing execution is zero, and the accelerator opening on the occasion of the current routine execution is not zero. This means that a driver has depressed the accelerator pedal during a coast running of a vehicle.
  • the determination is negative. It should be noted that, if the accelerator opening is zero while a vehicle travels, it means that a vehicle travels by virtue of an inertial force, or in other words the vehicle is coast running.
  • a state where the accelerator opening is zero corresponds to a state where the accelerator pedal is not depressed, or in other words to a throttle opening with which the engine runs idle.
  • step S 1 If the determination in the step S 1 is negative, the ECU 4 does not perform the subsequent processing and terminates the routine.
  • the ECU 4 outputs a signal for decreasing a hydraulic pressure of the lockup clutch 2 C to a predetermined pressure via the ATCU 5 in a step S 2 .
  • the predetermined pressure is set to a hydraulic pressure at which a lockup clutch capacity of the lockup clutch 2 C is slightly lower than an output torque of the internal combustion engine 1 after the fuel recovery is obtained.
  • the ECU 4 determines whether or not the accelerator opening is equal to or smaller than a fuel recovery determination value. Specifically, it is determined whether or not the accelerator opening corresponds to a minute accelerator opening at which a gear shifting operation of the automatic transmission 2 A is not generated.
  • the fuel recovery determination value is set to, for example, 0.5/8 providing that a maximum accelerator opening is at 8/8.
  • the ECU 4 performs fuel recovery in a step S 7 , thereby causing a fuel injection amount to increase in response to a request of increasing the output power of the internal combustion engine 1 represented by the accelerator opening.
  • the determination in the step S 3 becomes negative when, for example, the accelerator pedal is depressed notably such as in a kick-down operation..
  • step S 3 If the determination in the step S 3 is affirmative, the ECU 4 prohibits fuel recovery in a step S 4 . After the processing of the step S 4 , the ECU 4 performs a determination of a step S 5 .
  • the ECU 4 determines whether or not the engaging pressure of the lockup clutch 2 C has decreased to the predetermined pressure designated in the step S 2 . This determination may be performed using various methods.
  • the engaging pressure of the lockup clutch 2 C may be actually measured using the pressure sensor 10 , and the measured value may be compared to a predetermined pressure. According to this method, it is possible to reliably assess the engaging pressure of the lockup clutch 2 C.
  • a predetermined time may be defined based on a measurement result obtained in advance by measuring a time elapsing until the engaging pressure of the lockup clutch 2 C actually decreases to a predetermined pressure after a signal for decreasing a pressure to a predetermined pressure is output to the lockup clutch 2 C. If this determination method is employed, it is possible to omit the pressure sensor 10 used to detect the engaging pressure of the lockup clutch 2 C.
  • the rotation speed of the pump impeller of the torque converter 2 B may be used.
  • the aforementioned determination may be performed by detecting the rotation speed Ne of the internal combustion engine 1 detected by the engine rotation speed sensor 8 and the rotation speed Nt of the turbine runner of the torque converter 2 B and determining whether or not an absolute value of a slip rotation speed, which is a difference between the rotation speeds Ne and the Nt, exceeds a predetermined rotation speed.
  • the rotation speed Nt of the turbine runner is obtained from a vehicle travel speed detected by the vehicle speed sensor 7 and a selector position detected by the shift position sensor 9 .
  • the predetermined rotation speed may be set based on a result of experiment or simulation performed in advance for the slip rotation speed at the predetermined pressure designated in the step S 2 . Similarly, when this determination method is employed, it is possible to omit the pressure sensor 10 .
  • the lockup clutch 2 C disengages so that a change of the engine rotation speed caused by fuel recovery can be absorbed by the torque converter 2 B.
  • the ECU 4 performs fuel recovery in the step S 7 . After the fuel recovery, the ECU 4 terminates the routine.
  • the ECU 4 determines if a recovery delay condition is satisfied in a step S 6 .
  • this determination is made by determining whether or not the accelerator opening is greater than the fuel recovery determination value 0.5/8. If the accelerator opening is greater than the fuel recovery determination value 0.5/8, it means that the accelerator opening has exceeded a target accelerator opening region for the recovery delay control. In this case, the ECU 4 performs fuel recovery in the step ST After the fuel recovery, the ECU 4 terminates the routine. Even when the accelerator opening is equal to or lower than the fuel recovery determination value 0.5/8 at the routine start timing, if the accelerator opening exceeds the fuel recovery determination value 0.5/8 during the routine execution, the fuel recovery is immediately executed since the determination in the step S 6 changes to be affirmative from negative. As a result, a high response is ensured with respect to the accelerator pedal depression so as to accelerate a vehicle.
  • step S 6 when the accelerator opening does not exceed the fuel recovery determination value 0.5/8, the ECU 4 determines that the recovery delay condition is satisfied. In this case, the ECU 4 repeats the processing subsequent to the step S 4 to suspend the furl recovery.
  • the ATCU 5 maintains the engaging pressure of the lockup clutch 2 C as illustrated in FIG. 3D , and the lockup clutch capacity is maintained in the value of the engagement state as illustrated in FIG. 3C .
  • the lockup clutch capacity means a maximum transmittable torque in the current engagement state of the lockup clutch 2 C.
  • the determination in the step S 1 is negative. Therefore, the fuel recovery is not executed, and the fuel cut-off state is maintained.
  • step S 1 changes to be affirmative in the subsequent execution of the fuel recovery control routine.
  • step S 2 the ECU 4 outputs a command signal for decreasing the engaging pressure to the lockup clutch 2 C via the ATCU 5 as illustrated in FIG. 3D . Due to a response delay in a hydraulic pressure used to generate the engaging pressure, even when an engaging pressure command value decreases in a stepwise fashion, both an actual engaging pressure indicated by the dotted line in FIG. 3D and an actual lockup capacity indicated by the dotted line in FIG. 3C decrease gradually.
  • the determination of the step S 3 in the fuel recovery control routine changes to be affirmative, and fuel recovery is prohibited in the step S 4 .

  • the slip rotation speed corresponding to the speed difference there-between temporarily increases as illustrated in FIG. 3E .
  • the slip rotation speed thus increased converges to zero.
  • An acceleration of the vehicle in a forward/backward direction is maintained constant during a coast running as illustrated in FIG. 3F , and a deceleration starts to decrease at the time t 1 in which the command for decreasing the engaging pressure command value of the lockup clutch 2 C is output.
  • the deceleration smoothly decreases toward zero until the vehicle speed becomes constant after the time t 2 .
  • a vehicle coasts that is, the internal combustion engine has a negative driving force
  • the lockup clutch is engaged until the time t 1 as illustrated in FIG. 11C .
  • This state will be referred to as a coast lockup state mCSTSLT.
  • the ECU 4 outputs a command value for decreasing the engaging pressure to the lockup clutch 2 C as illustrated in FIG. 11E via the ATCU 5 .
  • the ECU 4 executes fuel recovery.
  • the engine torque starts to increase from timing t 1 as illustrated in FIG. 11D .
  • a vehicle drives normally in pattern, that is, the internal combustion engine has a positive driving force, and the lockup clutch slips.
  • This state will be referred to as a drive slip state mSLP.
  • the engaging pressure decreases gradually as indicated by the dotted line in FIG. 11E . Therefore, the lockup clutch capacity of FIG. 11D also decreases gradually.
  • step S 6 Since the determination in the step S 6 is negative until the accelerator opening exceeds 0.5/8, the fuel recovery is repeatedly prohibited in the step S 4 .
  • the determination of the step S 6 changes to be affirmative, and the fuel recovery is executed in the step S 7 . Since the determination of the step S 3 becomes negative in the subsequent execution of the routine, the fuel recovery is repeatedly executed.
  • the engine torque increases at the time t 3 . Thereafter, the engine torque is generated depending on the depression level of the accelerator pedal.
  • the fuel recovery is executed regardless of the lockup clutch capacity.
  • the lockup clutch 2 C is re-engaged when the engine torque is recovered to a certain level through the fuel recovery.
  • the ECU 4 outputs a command value for decreasing the engaging pressure to the lockup clutch 2 C via the ATCU 5 as illustrated in FIG. 12D .

  • both the actual engaging pressure indicated by the dotted line of FIG. 12D and the lockup clutch capacity indicated by the dotted line of FIG. 12C decrease with a delay as the engaging pressure command value decreases.
  • the engine torque increases while the lockup clutch 2 C is not substantially disengaged. That is, since the increasing engine torque is directly transmitted to the propeller shaft 3 , a fluctuation is generated in the acceleration of a vehicle in a forward/backward direction as indicated by the area enclosed by the dot-dashed line of FIG. 12F . This generates a shock in a chassis and makes the driver or a passenger feel discomfort.
  • This fuel recovery control routine is different from that of FIG. 2 in that the step S 4 is substituted with a step S 4 A.
  • the steps S 1 to S 3 and the steps S 5 to S 7 are identical to those of FIG. 2 .
  • the ECU 4 prohibits the fuel recovery in a half of cylinders of the internal combustion engine 1 in the step S 4 A. That is, if the internal combustion engine 1 has eight cylinders, the fuel recovery is prohibited in four cylinders, and the fuel recovery is performed in the remaining four cylinders.
  • the number of cylinders where the fuel recovery is prohibited may not be necessarily set to a half of the cylinders.
  • the conditions until the time t 1 are identical to those of FIGS. 3A to 3F .
  • the determination in the step S 1 changes to be affirmative.
  • the ECU 4 outputs a command value for decreasing the engaging pressure to the lockup clutch 2 C via the ATCU 5 as illustrated in FIG. 6D . Due to a response delay of the hydraulic pressure, both the actual engaging pressure indicated by the dotted line in FIG. 6D and the lockup capacity indicated by the dotted line in FIG. 6C decrease gradually in contrast to a sudden decrease in the engaging pressure command value.
  • the engine rotation speed Ne may decrease as the lockup clutch 2 C disengages as indicated by the dotted line of FIG. 6B .
  • the engine torque slightly increases as a whole. Therefore, a decrease in the engine rotation speed Ne due to a disengagement of the lockup clutch 2 C does not occur.
  • This fuel recovery control routine is different from that of FIG. 2 in that the step S 4 is substituted with the step S 4 B, and the step S 7 is substituted with the step S 7 B. Other steps are identical to those of the routine of FIG. 2 .
  • the ECU 4 prohibits fuel recovery in overall cylinders and prohibits the opening rate of the intake throttle 1 A, that is, the throttle opening from increasing. Since the intake throttle 1 A is synchronized with the accelerator pedal, the throttle opening increases as the accelerator pedal is depressed. In the step S 4 B, both the fuel recovery and the increase in the throttle opening are prohibited.
  • step S 7 B the ECU 4 releases the prohibition of the fuel recovery and the increase in the throttle opening.
  • fuel supply to the internal combustion engine 1 is resumed, and the opening rate of the intake throttle 1 A increases depending on the depression of the accelerator pedal.
  • both the fuel recovery and the increase in the opening rate of the intake throttle 1 A are prohibited in overall cylinders during a recovery delay period until the time t 2 after a driver slightly depresses the accelerator pedal at the time t 1 .
  • the throttle opening increases as indicated by the dot-dashed line in FIG. 8A . If the intake air amount of the internal combustion engine 1 is suppressed to a low level during the recovery delay period, the output torque caused by the fuel recovery smoothly increases, as indicated by the dot-dashed line in FIG. 8C , even when the fuel recovery is immediately performed at the time 12 , due to a response delay of the intake air amount against an increase in the accelerator opening.
  • a fuel recovery control routine executed by the ECU 4 according to the fourth embodiment of this invention will be described. This routine is executed instead of the fuel recovery control routine of the first embodiment.
  • the execution condition is identical to that of the first or second embodiment.
  • step S 2 of the routine of FIG. 2 of the first embodiment is substituted with a step S 2 A.
  • the processing is executed again not from the step S 4 , but from the step S 2 A.
  • the ECU 4 applies an advance correction to the engaging pressure command value before it is output to the lockup clutch 2 C. Specifically, by setting the engaging pressure command value to a value lower than the predetermined pressure, a decrease in the engaging pressure of the lockup clutch 2 C is accelerated.
  • the ECU 4 performs feedback control of the engaging pressure by repeatedly processing the steps S 2 A to S 6 such that the engaging pressure of the lockup clutch 2 C finally converges to the predetermined pressure.
  • the processing of the step S 2 A is repeatedly executed from the time t 1 at which the accelerator pedal is depressed to the time t 2 at which the engaging pressure of the lockup clutch 2 C decreases to the predetermined pressure.
  • the ECU 4 outputs a command value for decreasing the engaging pressure to the lockup clutch 2 C via the ATCU 5 in the step S 2 A as illustrated in FIG. 10D .
  • a decrease in the actual engaging pressure is expedited as indicated by the dot-dashed line of FIG. 10D , compared to a case where the advance correction is not applied as indicated by the dotted line.
  • the recovery delay period from the time t 1 to the time t 2 at which the engaging pressure of the lockup clutch 2 C decreases to the predetermined pressure is shortened.
  • a process for decreasing the output power of the internal combustion engine 1 is repeatedly performed in the step S 4 A.
  • the engine torque is suppressed to a low value until the engaging pressure of the lockup clutch 2 C decreases to the predetermined pressure. Therefore, the acceleration of a vehicle in a forward/backward direction smoothly increases as illustrated in FIG. 10F .
  • a shock due to an increase in the engine torque while the lockup clutch 2 C is substantially engaged is not promoted.
  • the output power decreasing period of the internal combustion engine 1 from the time t 1 to the time t 2 is shortened. Therefore, it is possible to shorten a response time elapsing from the depression of the accelerator pedal to the increase in the vehicle travel speed.
  • the accelerator pedal when the accelerator pedal is slightly depressed during a coast running of a vehicle, the fuel recovery of the internal combustion engine is suppressed until the engaging pressure of the lockup clutch 2 C decreases to a predetermined pressure or lower. Therefore, it is possible to prevent a driver or a passenger from feeling discomfort caused by an influence on a vehicle speed generated by increasing the output power of the internal combustion engine 1 while the lockup clutch 2 C is substantially engaged.
